Hi ,

I read somewhere

According to a Service Canada agent, you are not covered under OHIP during the lapse in your status. Your OHIP coverage will be reinstated when they receive notification from Citizenship and Immigration Canada that an extension was granted.

Until then you would be responsible for your medical expenses. However, you can be reimbursed once your coverage is reinstated, hold on to receipts. It is unclear whether all expenses will be reimbursed, best to call the Service Ontario INFOline at 1-866-532-3161 for information specific to your situation.

Can somebody verify this ??

Hi. Is this also applicable for other temporary foreign workers who are implied status or only for LIC?
Thank you!
